IDEAS FOR RYZOM

What about binding "Quartering" and "Take All" to a single key? We can press space-bar to target the next mob, maybe we could have another key that would loot and take everything that would fit in our pack automatically.

#96 [en] 

Sieges -- the fact that we have to click and collect is a design feature, not a bug. It helps reduce botting.

botting, with such a small player base (vs WoW and other mmo's) i don't think is really a major issue, furthermore, you could call an alt a bot, though you have to input the commands to that alt, where a bot is programed to do a set action.

i think botting would be an issue if this WAS NOT a sandbox game, and honestly, i can't see how "player a" using a bot would hurt "player b" since i've never seen or known of a pvp bot.

but this is just my random thoughts here :)

Other games - they give you a cookie whether you succeed or not, in fact you don't even have to participate. Ryzom takes your cookie, eats it in front of you, and slaps you 2 or 3 times for bringing a cookie in the first place.

No need to make it easier, though :) Playing in a game where power-levellers just have their computer scripts level for them would not be fun. It's (supposed to be) a Massive Multiplayer game, not a massive multi-script game ;)

Just add more roaming mobs that are agro and hard and ppl won't be able to bot or camp

+1 to suboxides idea

#101 [en] 

2 ideas, both involve adding optional parameters to chat commands
Emotes: using /wave as an example: it would be great if I could type "/wave alice bob" and it would ignore whatever I had targeted and show "Anulian waves at Alice and Bob" would appear and my toon would make the relevant gesture if possible.

/follow: It would be really useful if I could specify what I was following instead of it always following my target
(also, I can think of a few reasons why it isn't done like this but there have been times I've really wished that "/follow" used the same routing algorithm as mektoubs, particularly when I've needed a bio break during a trek through PR)

Anulian -- I'm not sure that your ideas count as "interface woes" (i.e. bugs or interface ideas). You might want to write them up in the Ideas section of the Forums, and since there are two ideas, it should be in two threads.

By the way, your first idea can be done as a macro if it is always the same "Alice" and "Bob" (like guildmates). You could also set it up to wave at the #1 and #2 members of your team. However, I strongly doubt that it will be implemented as an idea since programming it would be a real pisser.

The problem is that currently the parser for the emote commands interprets any text following the /emote to be part of what you want to say:

Right now I can type "/wave Alice and Bob" and the parser will present: Bitttymacod Alice and Bob in the chat window while my toon executes the wave animation. The same functionality allows me to aggressively wave at Alice by executing the following:
/tar Alice
/alert waves to $t$
That causes me to do the "alert" animation while facing Alice and echoes in the chat:
Bitttymacod waves to Alice

The problem then would be how to tell the parser that text following the /emote portion represents potential targets rather than plain text. I'm sure it can be done: I'm not at all sure that the programming team will think that it's worth it.

P.S. More tokens are possible in /emote commands, including the generic /em. See: http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/3464/1#1 . Keep in mind that the posting was some years ago and not all features announced therein are still implemented. (All the emote functions are.)

not helpfull but you can also do something like this:

You target Alice and you 'hope' Alice targets Bob
then you do:

/wave waves to $t$ and $t.t$
=> Result would be: "Suboxide waves to Alice and Bob" + wave animation

I agree. But mind that your mektoub does not run its own computer and client ;)

I have another improvement suggestion for the interface: when the info window for an item is open, it would be a lot more convenient if the item was in some way highlighted in the inventory and vendor windows. Occasionally I have a lot of very similar items and this would really help when I actually want to do something different with each one.

#107 [en] 

Still waiting for the English Uni to be auto-attached to the rest, the interface on a newly started character is very cluttered due to all the stuff dumped in the middle on the screen. Not to mention people end up believing they have to write in that chat in order to talk to Chiang, because they see his tooltip but don't know to right click him.

((sidenote: why couldn't his tooltip actually say Right click me? break immersion on a tutorial?))

Other dynamic channels should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis too, maybe it's useful to have News and a newly added Faction channel pop in your face ... but maybe not?

While we're at it, lots of people end up asking what "Uni" means, in English it could as well be short for "University" which is confusing. The nod to the main "Universe" channel is not immediately obvious. Maybe renaming English Uni to English Chat would be useful?

Lastly, the stable boy should be able to release mektoubs from stables. It's a long-running joke that pressing shift+p to "talk" to your animal is one of the most counter-intuitive ways this functionality was implemented. If the stable boy can offer to feed your animals depending on context (i.e. if they're inside stables or not), then he certainly can offer to get them out to you.

Is this topic even monitored anymore?

You mean the developer has left the game?

This idea of "I'm offended". Well I've got news for you. I'm offended by a lot of things too. Where do I send my list? Life is offensive. You know what I mean? Just get in touch with your outer adult. (Bill Hicks)
